Hi and thank you so much for this query.
It is entirely safe to be able to do an RI with fever. Remember a majority of these tests are done on sick patients and fever is not a contraindication. I hope you get well soon as it is best to do these tests while feeling great. I wish you well and hope this addresses your query fully.
